Syrian Refugee Education Lectures

Elizabeth Buckner (Arabic 2008), a 2016 ADF recipient, coordinated and hosted a public event that highlighted student and faculty research that is related to refugee education, focused on the Middle East and North Africa, and, more specifically, on responses to the Syrian refugee crisis. Six speakers addressed various aspects of these issues and shared their academic works with the audience (approx. 30 attendees). Elizabeth was also able to present her own research study that she conducted on refugee education policy for Syrian refugees in Lebanon.
